Told him in tank pump cause I thought the FCC was ugly lol. I am happy I got to speak with a guy who has installed these on different vehicles. Hell you will never know unless you ask. And trust me I have no issue calling and asking and *****ing when I have spent $1500. In my other posts about the timing control I was just repeating what a tech office guy told me. But the mechanic set me straight lol. And I am happy he did. Plus guys he has built a few C10's. Lol. Makes me feel better about giving them my money. And they are easy to talk with.
I am coming to this thread late so I apologize for asking a question about such an old post. (450) Did the mechanic say why you need a relay for an in tank pump and not for the "Fuel Command Center". I don't see the difference. You are running a fuel pump either way. The load should be the same. Also, does the relay work OK with the PWM signal from the ECU? The reason I am curious is that I am getting ready to install one on a friends 69 Camaro. Any help you can give me would be appreciated. I have another friend who put one on a Bronco and he had a problem with it burning out one of the pins in the power connector. I think it is the one that runs the fuel pump.

By the way, nice truck.
